Owner?
Hearing the ethereal voice emanating from the giant white cocoon, Yun Si Ning was completely stunned.
"Master, is that you?"
The voice became very excited.
ah?
Is this Si Yiqi's pet? Did it mistake me for Si Yiqi?
"I can sense my master's presence, why are you ignoring me?"
The voice continued.
As it spoke, the giant white cocoon began to wriggle, its slippery surface being pushed up by something, as if it were about to break free.
Seeing this, Yun Sining immediately became anxious and hurriedly said something.
"I'm here, I'm back."
Hearing her words, the giant cocoon gradually calmed down.
"Phew~~"
Yun Si Ning let out a long breath.
Goodness gracious, what's inside might be the second slug. What would happen if it came out?
The previous one had the strength of the peak of the Snake Core Realm, and this one might be about the same.
Just kidding, if you were targeted by a powerful demon at the Serpent Core Realm here, hehe...
Why don't you just end the series right away?
"Master...why are you only coming back now?"
The same sound rang out again.
"Ah... I've run into some trouble."
"Has Master encountered danger?!"
The voice suddenly rose in pitch, even carrying a hint of anger.
"No, I have to go out and help my master!"
The cocoon shook violently again, as if the thing inside was trying to burrow out.
"Hey, hey, I'm fine, I'm fine!"
Yun Si Ning shouted, she was about to collapse, "Can we please stop climbing out like this? It's scary!"
"It was just a minor issue, but it's been resolved."
"Really?"
"Really, really, with my power, who could possibly pose a danger to me?"
"Hmm...that's true, Master is the best!"
Yun Si Ning felt that the guy inside seemed very innocent, like a little kid.
"Waaaaah~~"
A whimpering sound came from inside the giant cocoon.
"Master, I really want to go out and help you. I want to stay by your side forever."
"But... there's just too little desire in here, not enough for me to complete my transformation."
Desire? Transformation?
Yun Si Ning's brain started working at lightning speed.
Could it be... that the reason this guy has been trapped in the giant cocoon and can't get out is because he doesn't have enough desire?
If the desire is strong enough, it can break free from its cocoon.
In order not to give herself away, Yun Si Ning did not speak rashly.
"Master, have you come back to take me away?"
The voice asked, its tone tinged with anticipation.
"Forehead……"
Yun Si Ning hesitated, and the other person seemed to sense it, their voice becoming tinged with disappointment.
"Oh, it's alright, Master. You can take me away anytime."
"As long as... as long as Master doesn't forget me..."
Sensing the melancholy in its voice, Yun Sining was suddenly moved.
This guy... won't be abandoned here by Si Yiqi forever, will he?
When did Si Yiqi die?
The year 2290 in the Da Long calendar?
After her death, the Great Long Dynasty lasted for more than six thousand years before it perished, and then it went through a period of war between various sects.
In other words, it has been six or seven thousand years since Si Yiqi perished.
Has this guy been trapped here for so long?
Yun Si Ning felt a little sorry for it; no matter what, being abandoned was definitely not a good feeling.
If she were trapped in one place for that long—no, it wouldn't take that long—she would go crazy.
"Oh, right."
"The things you left behind before you left are in the hidden compartment on the right. I've been keeping them safe for you with great care!"
The voice returned to its previous light and cheerful tone.
What was left behind, what did Si Yiqi leave behind?
Yun Si Ning was genuinely interested in this.
As instructed, she slowly walked to his right.
Sure enough, she found a hidden compartment at the bottom of the stone wall.
She opened it easily, but instead of the elixirs or magical treasures she had imagined, there was only a single sheet of paper inside.
Yun Si Ning picked it up; the feel of it was very familiar.
"Yes, it's similar to the ancient scroll that Senior Sister got; it was left behind by Si Yiqi."
She looked at the words above and read them silently in her mind.
"If you come here later, you will surely have already received part of my legacy."
"Before I perished, I left two guardian beasts in my tomb."
"One of them has almost finished its nurturing and is about to hatch. I will place the most essential inheritance on it."
This must be referring to that giant slug.
Yun Si Ning thought to herself.
"If an outsider does not carry my aura, the guardian beast will never allow them to take the inheritance away."
"They will fight to the death to protect their heritage, even to the point of dying in battle."
Hmm... this isn't right, is it?
Panxi had said that even though her hands were tainted with Si Yiqi's lust, the slug still attacked her without hesitation.
And what's more, back then I didn't even use your inheritance, your pet just came up and unleashed its ultimate skill!
Yun Si Ning thought that either the slug had been there for too long and its brain had gone crazy, causing it to forget Si Yi Qi's orders. (If such a creature even had a brain.)
Or perhaps Si Yiqi's factory settings are faulty, and she's not at all as she wrote on this paper.
Regardless of the reason, Yun Si Ning felt very aggrieved.
She pouted, annoyed, and continued reading.
"And the other guardian beast is somewhat special."
"Its bloodline is extremely rare, one could even say it is unique."
"I have spent too many resources and effort to cultivate it."
"It is quite regrettable that I did not complete the final step of incubation before I died."
"When someone sees this handwritten piece of mine, perhaps a thousand years will have passed."
Oh, you're being too conservative; it's been over six thousand years.
"When you arrived here, it should have been just one step away from fully hatching."
"If you can gain its approval and find enough desire for it, you can turn it into your own."
"Not only that, if you truly gain recognition, I might as well bestow upon you another great opportunity."
So kind of you? Giving it to me and even delivering it to me.
Yun Si Ning was somewhat surprised, but she quickly saw the last sentence.
"I remind you that even though it has just hatched, its strength is comparable to that of someone who has just entered the Dragon Marrow Realm."
"No one but myself has ever truly earned its approval."
"Those who come after, take heed."
(By the way, my darlings, if you see any typos or anything odd, just @ me in the comments section. I'll definitely fix it when I see it, thank you!! [heart emoji])
